o then when you get a review that sees all the hope, love and care you have poured into your work, and responds to it in kind, while reminding you of why it is that you do the things you do ... well.

Earlier this week, I received an email I’ve dreamt about in multiple shapes and forms since the moment I committed to a PhD all those years ago. Duke University Press, home to some of the most inventive and genre-defying queer scholarship I know, has decided to publish my book -

Very exciting, there is a new learned society in legal studies, the Legal Humanities Association. It's based in the UK but very explicitly international in focus. It aims to foster a community dedicated to cultural understandings of law. legalhumanities.com

Came across this very creatively written 'case comment' by @dsheikh726 and @PaliSamuel as a conversation on what the afterlife of law and queer activism could look like post-Supriyo. Was pleasantly surprised to see a short article that I had written for the Wire cited in it.
Socio-Legal Review@SLR_NLSIU

In their case comment on Supriyo - the marriage equality case - Danish Sheikh (@dsheikh726) and Rupali Samuel (@PaliSamuel) present a staged conversation to reflect on the intricate entanglements of intimacy and state recognition. Read ahead-of-print at: repository.nls.ac.in/slr/vol20/iss1…

Thrilled to share that my play “Much to do with Law, but More to do with Love” has won the 2025 Queer Playwriting Award presented by Midsumma Festival. So excited for the chance to travel and share this work with a wider range of audiences.

@dsheikh726 I was in awe of Love and Reparation when I read it a few years ago and it would be a treat to see the two plays performed. This one sounds great too and the recorded version on YouTube is handy. Any plans of bringing it to India?
